My wife got me watching Dancing with the Stars with her starting many years ago. We've enjoyed watching the show together since then.

It's also opened up a new world for me. An appreciation for professional and competitive dancing!

I stumbled on this video yesterday from a performance 8 decades ago. Because of this new interest, I was blown away by their ability/talent.

This was one of the world greatest dance performances!!

I watched it several times in amazement:

The choreography,  athletic ability, power, timing, agility, footwork and synchronization is better than anything I know of.

As somebody that taught themselves to play piano by ear, this piece and performance is incredibly amazing:
